I’ve Understood ...

 

I’ve understood that angels 

have always attended to my needs 

but recently have found comfort in calling them in. 

My sense personally is they are sometimes ancestors. 

I have begun to rely on them 

and see their loving touches 

now that my eyes are open.

I Am Not Bound...

 

I am not bound to win, 

but I am bound to be true. 

I am not bound to succeed, 

but I am bound to live

 by the light that I have. 

I must stand with anybody 

that stands right, 

and stand with him while he is right, 

and part with him 

when he goes wrong.

~Abraham Lincoln

I'm Having A New Understanding...

 

Raffaello Sanzio da Urbino

I'm having a new understanding of love, 

and like O just said, 

the scale of awakening 

is sometimes lost in our imagination 

as to what it actually is. 

The same is true for love. 

We have a picture 

based on our mechanics and experiences, 

and feminine dominance etc. 

of what love is, 

and it is so much more than this. 

There seems to be a detachment in higher love, 

and an acceptance as well.

So to be gifted with the state of love 

is a much higher experience 

than what the love of the machine feels.

Love Is...

 

Love is the healing water 

that will soften my rough edges, 

that will soften the noise of my "clanging cymbal". 

Love will channel this energy 

into a higher & finer energy.

Prayer Is Not Asking. ...

 

“Prayer is not asking. 

It is a longing of the soul. 

It is daily admission of one's weakness. 

It is better in prayer 

to have a heart without words 

than words without a heart.” 

~Mahatma Gandhi

If You Are In Nonexistence...

 

If you are in nonexistence, 

you hold your emotions 

or energy back in some space 

that is safe for the machine. 

You would do better to harness the emotion 

and use it gracefully in well directed H12 

to make the connections you seek. 

Because if you force the emotions 

into queenie expressions just to make connections, 

you may lose the precious energy.

We Have Been Talking...

 

We have been talking lately 

about External Consideration, 

when we learn to feel the other, 

enter into their "play" 

and honor their needs. 

This can be challenging, 

as it can collide with our plans in the moment. 

But as I learn to keep that connection with love 

and the higher more constantly, 

it becomes more natural. 

And I can remember to do that.

When We Try ...

 

Sir Frederick Leighton 

When we try to force our thoughts 

onto a person we are not teaching; 

but if we try to hear 

what he does not understand, 

we are learning; 

then we can feel the person 

and can teach him. 

There is only one truth 

and people must come to it 

in their own way.

~Rodney Collin, The Mirror of Light

When I Began...

 

When I began the Work, 

it was for the simple purpose 

of connecting with something higher. 

I didn’t have words for it then, 

but I knew I had lost the connection 

to that which mattered most. 

I would have said at that time 

that all the wrong things 

had become too IMPORTANT, 

but I could not find the RIGHT things. 

Now I know 

it was that I had lost 

a feeling of connection with my soul, 

and through that to the higher in me. 

But back then it was much more mysterious.
